Being born in '92, I find myself watching sitcoms from older decades. TV was just so much better then. This show has always been a favorite of mine.

The Facts of Life ran on network TV during my early years but I have seen it in syndication and I really, really like what I have seen. The series is intensely entertaining to say the least. My favorite character is none other than Jo Polniaczek, portrayed by the ever-gorgeous Nancy McKeon. From the way I look at it, the series' best episodes are those that revolve around the Jo character. The other cast members are also terrific but McKeon will always be my top favorite from the classic NBC show.I really hope that entire Facts of Life series gets released on DVD eventually. Hopefully, when this finally happens, retail stores will be able to keep the boxed sets in stock. Also, I really hope that the first two seasons get released as one set, as those two were only half-seasons. I am very anxious to view this incredible show again!

This show kicks butt. The only thing that bugs me is tootie. She really gets in the way. Blair is really funny because of what she cares mostly about, HERSELF! Mrs G is funny because she makes not-so-funny jokes, Nat is just funny because everything she says is funny, and Jo is funny because of her constant feuding w/Blair. Tootie is just there.

I don't see how anyone could ADORE this show. It's funny at times, and Blair, Nat and Jo RULE, but Tootie and Mrs. Garrett ruin the whole thing. I think that if you take the good (blair, jo and nat) and leave out the bad (everyone else, including that little geek that hangs out with them in the later shows) you could have a really good show. But that will never happen so i suppose i can just dream on.
